  In general, a tax situation is simple if an individual has no income or if their income comes from these sources:
  • employment
  • pension
  • benefits, such as the Canada Pension Plan, Old Age Security, disability insurance, employment insurance, and social assistance
  • registered retirement savings plans (RRSPs)
  • scholarships, fellowships, bursaries, or grants
  • interest (under $1,200)
  Volunteers are not expected to answer complex tax questions. If a taxpayer needs information that is beyond the volunteer's expertise, they can find more information on this website or contact the Canada Revenue Agency.
  
  Some volunteers may complete prior-year tax returns; however, they will only complete tax returns they feel comfortable preparing based on the information the taxpayer gives them. Complex tax situations are not supported.
